In order to support that rate of return and make up for under funding, Social Security would have to earn a higher rate. Pensions are typically invested more conservatively than you and I are. They use a higher percentage of bonds. This typically yields a lower rate of return.

There is another concern with SS invested in stocks. Do you want government employees controlling the agendas and votes at stockholders meetings?
